Hopefully Jeudy continues to explore and discover the usage of his fingers. He had an absolutely abysmal 46% catch rate in 2020 (200th of 202 in the NFL), but managed to bump that up to a respectable 67.9% in 2021, which is only 0.3% behind Lockett, who many here have told me is responsible for Wilson's success.
Yeah, regarding Jeudy... just not an ideal start to his career. It sucks for any rookie WR (much less 2 on the same team) to come in without a legit #1 threat there to take pressure off. Then, misses most of the 2nd season.
He's proven very little, but there are reasons. Stay healthy because now he has a much better QB with a more solid cast, better coaching and a top RB tandem to take the focus from the defense. [Reply]

Please elaborate on what constitutes a "more solid cast" from last season? You lost Miller...and the guy you replaced him with has his arm in a sling which is a different surgery than the one that ended his season.
It appears, from the outside, you lost your DC, Fangio...he may have sucked as a HC but there is no way your newly converted DB coach will be a better DC...at least off the bat.
Honestly, your 2nd year RB and Surtain are your best young players. Your OL is below average and wasn't addressed. This will be your Achilles heel...IMO. Too many good pass rushers in your division...and you dont know who your RT is.
Wilson isn't waltzing into an optimum scenario...I stand by my post that says he was brought in to bump up the asking price. It worked...they sold for a record amount....you know that price would have been $500 million less without him. He was a chess piece...You had said you think it didn't matter...and I say it was crucial.
What difference did it matter to your former owners if they sold the farm to acquire him...it was "just business". They can walk away, wash their hands...and enjoy the extra money that maneuver made them. [Reply]
I’ve seen blue hairs push carts faster than that at Wal-Mart.
Looks like he’s been resisting the McDonald’s drive thru lately (although, for those with the propensity for man boobs, it never lasts). Now he just needs a growth spurt so he can see over his OL. [Reply]

That won't be a problem for him as they get pushed aside or ran around by oncoming pass rushers. DangeRuss will get a very clear view of who is hitting him . . . . . [Reply]
That's a great video and all, but it won't mean shit come gameday when the likes of Chris Jones, Maxx Crosby and Joey Bosa are bearing down on him and the older much more limited mobility DangeRuss won't be able to get his pudgy ass out of the way in time . . . . . . [Reply]
